Grub uses the BIOS mapping, so the BIOS boot drive will be hd0 for Grub. As far as the drive mapping, the CD-ROM will not have show up as a SCSI hard drive. It will show up as a SCSI CD-ROM drive. (scd0)

You can use partition labels in /etc/fstab, and in the kernel command lines in grub.conf, but Grub itself does not understand them.

LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2

Thank you all who answered this question. I greatly appreciate it.

I have a few questions. Beside the 16 character limit are there rules for e2label? Can I use '/' characters? And lastly can I do it on a live rw mounter file system?

Thank you all so much.
